Protecting Jobs and Promoting Local Businesses

Major Brent and Harrow tourism campaign 

I believe that our part of London is the best part of the greatest City in the world. I am developing a major tourism campaign to promote and showcase the best of Brent and Harrow to London and the rest of the world, From the Neasden Temple to the Harrow Arts Centre, there is something in the area that anyone can find joy in!

Boosting our economy 

The Government has lost control of the economy and is more interested in ideology and dog-whistle politics than practical solutions that support our economy and businesses and families through the cost of living crisis.

A fair immigration system and joining the customs union

Businesses particularly in the hospitality sector in London are struggling to fill vacancies. Their existence helps London thrive and our economy.

Out NHS is also struggling with record numbers of staff shortages.

The Government should immediately ease restrictions for workers in sectors that are struggling to help keep our economy and our country moving.

The B word - Brexit - can't be ignored or separated from the economic crisis that we are experiencing. I recognise the damage that reopening the debate on re-joining the European Union will have on social cohesion in this country. But the facts cannot be ignored. The economic reality of leaving the European Union has left our country worse off.

The single action the Government could and should take is joining the Customs Union and having similar arrangements with the EU as countries like Norway. This does mean reintroducing freedom of movement between the UK and EU countries. This single action would immediately boost our economy.
